Combinator: Shuffle & Overbeat — two mechanics, one goal: upgrade your deck.
🃏 Shuffle
Build poker hands. Influence the shuffle, pull straights, four of a kind, flushes from the deck. More combinations — bigger reward.
⚔️ Overbeat
An alternative version of Durak (the Fool) with a changing trump suit every round. Attack, beat cards, add same rank cards. If you can't beat — take the whole pile into your score. The player with more cards in their score at the end loses.
📈 Progress & Risk
Game loop:
1. Play Shuffle — multiply your in-game currency (or lose it, restarting from a minimum).
2. Buy the right to play Overbeat — if you win, convert resources into upgrade currency.
3. Spend it to improve your deck.
🔥 Quests
For any card you can start a quest: temporarily lower its level (it gives fewer points), play with this card several times, then get back the levels plus bonus currency.

Controls

Strategy
• In Shuffle: disrupt your opponent. If you can't build a hand — don't let them build theirs either.
• In Overbeat: keep a trump card in your hand. Trump changes — change your tactics. Attack aggressively, defend carefully.
• Risk: winning in Overbeat gives upgrade currency. Losing in Shuffle resets most of your progress, but upgraded cards stay with you.
• Quests: start them on cards you use often. Temporarily weaken a card, play it several times, then get the level back plus a bonus.
